I've asked myself a million times
A#m
why didn't just take my sisters that night
G#
and all of the hate we leave behind
C#
and all those bottled tears you leave
G#
remove the velvet from between her vertebrae
A#m
and all the holes lead deep inside us
G#
sincerely smoldering in her misery
C#
slipping from her stomach then she cried
G# A#m
G# C#
G#
all that we hold holding and then this
A#m
will slip away or slowly die
G#
melt between us all over the pavement
C#
all shivering and sweating and breathing
G#
though it makes it as the always happen (?)
A#m
hovering the trees with lights
G#
and all the arms that have swung around me
C#
like a robins nest with eggs inside
G#
now we go off in search of kindness
A#m
through a life willing and beautiful
G#
we know we can't take others with us
C# G#
though a comment on how it feels just like a brother
